Scotland is set to air a TV ad on HIV for the first time in four decades. Unlike previous campaigns that portrayed HIV as a deadly disease, this ad aims to inform viewers that people with HIV can lead healthy lives. The campaign, backed by research funded by the Scottish government, also includes billboards, newspapers, and online platforms. The message is that stigma is more harmful than the virus itself, and the goal is to raise awareness and dispel misconceptions about HIV.
